Download Opera 10.01

Opera has released an update for the 10.00 version of the web browser of the same name, which was released in early September. Opera is free to use and available for Windows, Linux, and Max OS X. The browser includes features like tabbed browsing, a popup blocker, and an email program with spam filter. The list of improvements in version 10.00 is long. For example, the Presto rendering engine has been renewed, which should improve stability and security.
